Need access to original setup files while uninstalling
Posted: Fri Feb 23, 2007 1:35 pm
Hello!
With my setup, some files need to be replaced after compilation. This works very well when I use the "Copy/Move Local Files" command like this: However, uninstall fails when the original setup files are no longer accessible. For example, you might have installed from an USB stick and removed the stick, or installed from a network share and disconnected from the network.
When I uninstall with the /l switch, I see the following messages in the log file:
MSI (s) (58:84) [17:47:53:448]: Product: Foo -- Error 1606. Could not access the network address \\\\server\\installfiles\\.
Any hints?
